Zara
King's College LondonBioinformatics ResearchHi! I'm Zara, a Bioinformatics MPhil/PhD student, and part of the Algorithms and Data Analysis research group at King’s College London. Before this, I did an integrated Master’s in Electronic Engineering at the same university. Throughout my time at King’s, I’ve had the experience of joining new societies that have led to travelling internationally, somehow becoming a sports captain and also becoming involved in several research projects. Feel free to ask me anything related to either of my degrees!
